The Indianapolis Journal very truth
fully says that Colonel Robertson has been
officially declared and recognized as Lieu
tenant Governor, and having very prop
erly been paid compensation as such dur.
ing the session of the Legislature it be-
comes more apparent than ever that Green
Smith should return to the Treasury that
portion of the Lieutenant Governors sal
airy which he surreptitiously obtained DUR
ing his usurpatl0n OF the Office. The
amount was two dollars, aud we presume
the late pretender can raise 1T Madison
Courier.
The foregoing is some of the specimen
''swash" that the Journal and other Repub-
icaD papers are giving the people in expla-
nation of the recent plundering raid of the
State Treasury by Kitchener and Bruce
Carr in favor of Col. Robertson. of
Fort Wayne. Let us see.
Robertson, if he was paid for
anything, he was paid for presiding over
the State Senate. Section %, of Article 5,
of the State Constitution, says:
'The Northumberland, while he
shall act as President of the Senate, shall
receive for his services the same compensa-
ton as the Speaker of the House of Repre-
sentatiyss, and any person acting as Gov
ernor shall receive the compensation at
tached to the Office OF Governor"
With that CLAUSE of the Constitution
staring him ir the face how was it posi-
bic for any honest official to pay
Col. Robertson $500 when it Is
well known that he did not
preside over the Senate one moment last
winter. 1t was a steal, pure and simple.
Another point in the controversy is that
the Senate is never under any obligation to
call the Lieutenant Governor to preside
over its deliberations. That body may
keep one of its own members in that posi-
ton as long as it pleases.
The Lieutenant Governor is not entitled
to any pay unless he presides over the
Senate.
Robertson, even if elected Lieutenant
Governor, was entitled to no pay because
he did not preside over the Senate. Hence
when he was paid several hundred dollars
by Kitchener & Co., the act was steal.

Gentlemen of the jury, to be honest
about it, the Republican House of the

To secure the largest possible style and

build mansions for Mr.. Vanderbilts

had the appearance of seaside hotels. Van

laid the eggs, but were not required to

A SENSATIONAL STORY
How One of the Chicago BOodIers Saved
himself from the Penitentiary.


CHICAGO, August SAN almost incredi-
BILE stcYy of how George G.. Elehm, pres
ident of the County Board, played the
part OF spy upon his associates throughout
the Doodle trial, is made public this morn
ing. The gist of the story is that Klehm,
to save himself from the penitent1ary,
agreed to act as a detective for the States
Attorney, and serve him with all inforNa.
ton possible regarding the plans of the
boodle1s and their lawyers dur1og.the trial.
After that Klehm attended all meetings of
the defendants, and was q close observer
of everything said and done. He and
the States Attorney met every night in
an ont off the very place, and Grinneh re-
cei7ed notice of every plan of the defense,
so much so in fact that no rebuttsl evil
de7ce could be offered by the bocdlers.
In other words, witnesses for the State was
produced who testified on every point to
be brought forward by the defence, and
the latter were compelled to simply deny.
During the examination of talesnAen for
the Jury there was kept Up a system of
correspondence right in the court room
between Klehm and Grinneli by means of
almost imperceptible signs by which the
States Attorney was able to detect whether
person being examined was safe" man
or not. Klehm's pleading guilty was sur
prise to everybody, and the action was
caused by his belief that the promise Of
Grinnell would avail him nothing If the
jury were to adjudge him. He therefore
threw himself on the mercy of the judge.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND THE
TALLY-SHEET TRIALS.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND THE
SHEET TRIALS.
The Republican party in Indiana has
from the first been corrupt, UNANIMOUSLY
deprayed and vicious. Its lack of princi-
pie has been notorious. 1t contaminated
all things that it touched. Its disregard
of law was always conspicuous. Republic
canism in Indiana, and especially in In
dianapolis, has always been synonym of
political putridity, rottenness, deflement,
wickedness, demoraliza alton. 1t has stuffed
ballot boxes, altered tally-sheets, forged re-
turns, voted double tickets and time and
again counted out Democrats who have
been fairly and honestly elected. There
has not been an election il Indiana for
twenty-five years that certain Republican
scamps did not commit crimes enough, if
they had been properly punished, to have
filed to OVERLOOKING the penitentiaries of
the State, north and south.
At the last election in Indiana an alleged
Democrat by the name of Perkins tam
pered with the tally sheets. He has con-
fessed the crime. As the proof shows, no
one but Perkins was involved in the felony.
Up to the day of Perkins confession, the
whole bad business was shrouded in mys-
terry. His confession enables the com mur
nifty to fix the guilt Just where it belongs.
In the very incipiency of the investiga-
ton, Republican scalswags, blatherskites,
| demagogues-men known to be corrupt,
profigata and reprobate, set up hue and
cry against the Democratic party. These
miscreants demanded the indictment OF
Democrats because of their standing and
influence as Democrats, because they were

A Ysuthfal Murderer

FUTON, No., August Coroner Epper-
son yesterday held an inquest On the body
of Herson Smith, who was assassinated
four miles south of town Friday. The
evidence developed before the coroner
pointed to Smiths son, Mentor, as the
murderer. When the boy W as put on the
witness stand he admitted doing the
shooting, and says he was persuaded to do
so by his sister and a colored boy he had
met here IN Fulton on the 4th. Men
tor, the youthful murderer, is only 10
years old. He says his father did not
treat him we'll and whipped him for stay
ing away from home the night of the 4th.
The whipping was done in the morning
and it seemed the boy watched for a
chance TO murder his father. He did bis
work we'll.
